- All patients 18 years and older with epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that is persistent, relapsed or refractory to prior standard platinum and taxane-based therapy will be eligible. Tumor histology must be reviewed and confirmed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Laboratory of Pathology. Recurrent ovarian cancer is not a curable tumor. Patients who are platinum-sensitive and who, upon detailed informed consent, wish to consider this experimental regimen, will be considered.
